Emotion is durational. Why isn't our UI? When you feel something strongly, you don't move a slider to the right. You hold on. You press harder. You stay longer. Unpress is built on that premise. Press and hold an organically-designed digital light life form. The longer you hold, the more it grows. This is what emotional input looks like when the interface finally maps to the body; it is not a coordinate on a line, but intensity over time. A small step toward a more intuitive future. Built with Figma Make. Try it: unpress.figma.site (http://unpress.figma.site)Check it out in the Figma community: https://www.figma.com/community/file/1610110522410023907/unpress

I built a interstellar travel website (https://orbiture-travel.webflow.io) for a fictional company I named Orbiture in Webflow. It was seriously a stretch for my designer brain to learn to use the tool, but I learned an incredible amount. The site is luscious and interactive, with buttery animations and rich imagery. Oh! And I also reinvented the UX element that has been in dire need of an overhaul: the form. Unfortunately it seems the challenge was closed earlier than advertised, so despite me thinking I had 1 hour and 54 minutes to spare I was dismayed to discover that the I couldn't submit my work. I sent some desperate emails but have not heard back.
